The CBA regular season continues with Guangdong hosting Beikong. After securing a five-game winning streak, Guangdong's record stands at 18 wins and 11 losses, temporarily ranking 8th in the league. Beikong, on the other hand, has suffered consecutive defeats, with a record of 15 wins and 13 losses, placing them 10th in the league. Both teams are evenly matched and eager to win the game to boost their morale and rankings. In the first half, Guangdong leads Beikong 55-45, but in the second half, Beikong closes the gap tightly. Ultimately, Guangdong narrowly defeats Beikong 99-98. With this thrilling victory, three incredible moments occurred during the game. Three Unbelievable Moments: Both teams played well throughout the game. In the final moments, Shen Zijie missed his second free throw, and Zhang Fan entered the line prematurely. Players beyond the three-point line can only enter the three-point area to grab rebounds after the free throw hits the rim. Fortunately, Guangdong still won; otherwise, overtime would have been tough. In the last play, Jilunwate's timely and crucial block was impressive. Otherwise, Zhang Fan would have had an easy layup. Xu Jie performed exceptionally well, but playing over forty minutes per game is unsustainable. It's easy to get exhausted and risk injury. Please, Du Feng, give Xu Jie a rest in the next game. Guangdong's reserves for shooting guards and small forwards are insufficient. There are only three players between 1.9 meters and 2 meters tall: Huang Rongqi starts, Zhang Wenyi comes off the bench, and then there's only one foreign player. When both starters…

Translation of the content: Cui Xiaolong is in an awkward position as he gains attention, but Shanxi seems more willing to meet his demands. It is well-known that teams like Guangdong, Shanxi, and even unnamed northern teams have shown interest in him. The transfer window has been open for two days, yet there is still no clear outcome. The reason for this is that all parties are negotiating with Jiangsu team. Many fans are curious and speculate about where he will end up. Let's first acknowledge his situation; his poor performance this year does not reflect his true abilities. As a draft pick from the NBL, Cui Xiaolong's potential may only be a qualified rotation player for a team like Guangdong. Physically, he may not be better than Huang Rongqi, but in terms of reliability, he is far superior. As for his final destination, it involves complex interests between the player and the club. Let's explore this carefully. From the perspective of the player's personal wishes, going to Shanxi might be the best choice. Both Chen Pengyudi and Jia Mingru of the Shanxi team struggle to be considered qualified point guards, and Cui Xiaolong's three-year Class B contract is about to expire. Afterward, he will undoubtedly seek a higher-paying Class C contract. Shanxi has invested heavily in recruitment in recent years, spending more freely than Hongyuan. The initiative for Cui Xiaolong's trade lies with the team, and it would be hard to refuse if Zhang Mingchi is included. Jiangsu has many guards with similar conditions, so they don't particularly care…

Fact Proves: The Guangdong Men's Basketball Team That Killed Beijing Beikong Has Taken Another Path The Guangdong men's basketball team, which has proven its mettle by defeating Beijing Beikong, is now on a different path. Netizens have keenly pointed out that in this game, Beijing Beikong did not even understand the basic tactics. They are unsure whether to play inside or outside, who should organize, and who should be the main attacker. Their play was fragmented, with no successful screens throughout the game. There were penetrations without distribution, and no one to create space for the breakthroughs. Zhu, the perimeter player, hesitated upon receiving the ball, and they failed to capitalize on their opportunities. Xu Xin, however, truly has talent. He is fast for a big man and possesses mid-range shooting capabilities. His perfect 6-for-6 free throw record indicates that he should be given more opportunities to shoot from open positions, which would alleviate the burden on Xu Jie and Walter. Du Feng has consistently brought Xu Xin into the game from the end of the third quarter to the fourth quarter in the last two matches, both times with remarkable results. Xu Xin has become the decisive factor in these games, and his smile suggests that he is growing as a player. This could mark the beginning of his transformation, but it must be said that Guangdong's biggest weakness has been exposed by Beikong – the lack of depth in their guard rotation. In the end, aside from Xu Jie playing all 48 minutes, there were no other proper…

In the CBA regular season, Guangdong defeated Beikong 99-98 at home. In a tightly contested first quarter, Guangdong started to dominate in the second quarter and maintained a significant advantage in the second half, allowing them to keep the lead throughout the game. Even when Beikong closed the gap in the final moments, Guangdong managed to stabilize the score difference, with Xu Xin securing the buzzer-beater for a thrilling victory. Five players had outstanding performances. Xu Jie had a few too many turnovers, but he finished with 15 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists. He was able to deliver when it mattered most, playing all 48 minutes and single-handedly controlling the situation. Wat was also crucial in the clutch moments, as he could provide strong solutions. He scored 23 points on 7-of-17 shooting, making him an indispensable player for the team. Morand provided excellent protection under the basket with 10 points, 15 rebounds, and 3 blocks. As long as his emotions remained stable, he could maintain his destructive power. Xu Xin was another focal point, not playing much in the first half but stabilizing the paint in the second. Not only did he score 14 points on 4-of-5 shooting, but he also grabbed key rebounds in critical moments and made a buzzer-beater, helping the team maintain their lead. Bazley's determination on the offensive end was commendable, scoring 13 points on 5-of-10 shooting, with solid rebounding and defense. These three players in the frontcourt were able to sustain their impact. Zhang Wenyi and Ren Junfei both had passable performances. Although Zhang…

Translation of the article content into English: On January 4, 1981, the biggest task for the national football team was the final match of the fourth group in the Asian and Oceanian qualifying round for the 12th World Cup, followed by performing well in the final round after advancing. At the same time, focusing on this central task, the national team conducted a series of warm-up matches. Therefore, the gathering of national players in 1981 was also centered around these events. On January 4, the national team played against the North Korean team in the first round final of the 12th World Cup Asian and Oceanian qualifying round. The assembled players were the same as at the end of 1980, so there is no need to repeat them here. On February 12, the national team reassembled in Guangzhou. Leader Yang Xiuzu, coaches Zhang Honggen and Hu Zhigang led the first batch of players Chen Jin'gang, Zuo Shusheng, Xu Yonglai, Shen Xiangfu, and met with head coach Su Yongshun and five national players from the Guangdong team. Other old national players and newly selected players such as Shanghai team center forward Lu Miaosheng, Liaoning team center forward Guan Zhengbin, and Tianjin team central defender Wang Guangtai arrived later. In May, they visited the United States and participated in the Kirin Cup in Japan. On May 13, the national team was invited by Stony Creek Football Club in Pennsylvania, USA, and flew to the United States from Beijing for a friendly match. After the visit to the United States, they went to…

In a CBA regular season match where Guangdong Team, on a five-game winning streak, hosted Beikong Team with three losses in their last four games, it was a question of whether Guangdong would continue their excellent form or if Beikong would show signs of improvement. We were about to find out. The first quarter saw both teams engaging in an intense back-and-forth battle, with Guangdong ending the quarter at 25-24. Jilunwate scored 10 points in the quarter, while Xu Jie contributed 2 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists. In the second quarter, under the leadership of local players such as Xu Jie, Ren Junfei, and Zhang Wenyi, the team started with an 11-0 run. Beikong went scoreless for over two minutes until Salinger broke the drought with five consecutive points. At halftime, Guangdong led 55-45. Xu Jie had already accumulated 9 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals, while Morand had 10 points and 14 rebounds. Salinger had 16 points and 7 rebounds. After the break, both teams opened up with three-pointers, with Jilunwate, Liu Xiaoyu, and Du Runwang all hitting from beyond the arc. After Beikong made a 10-0 run in the paint to catch up, the home team went scoreless for four minutes, prompting Du Feng to bring Xu Xin into play. Jilunwate and Xu Jie's three-pointers resolved the scoring issues, and Xu Jie also connected several times with Xu Xin, showcasing the power of the "Xu-Xu" connection. By the end of the third quarter, Guangdong still held a 7-point lead. Xu Jie, who had played the…

On January 12th, Beijing time, the CBA regular season continued with Guangdong men's basketball team playing against Beikong team at home. Beikong men's basketball team has not performed well this season, currently ranking tenth in the league standings, and recently suffered two consecutive losses. The team has a luxurious lineup, but the results are average, and the input-output ratio is not cost-effective. Min Lulei has some responsibility, and this championship coach is also under considerable pressure. In the last game, despite a frantic comeback in the final quarter, they were still unable to defeat Liaoning team. Even with injuries to Riele and Zou Yuchen, it can still be seen that the team's lineup depth is astonishing. In fact, Chen Guohao played well, and Min Lulei should give him more opportunities. Liu Xiaoyu contributed little, and it would be better to give Lin Tingyan more opportunities. Guangdong men's basketball team has recently won five consecutive victories, but the problem of Xu Jie playing too long has not been resolved. Zhu Fangyu is also actively looking for a small foreign aid, and easing the pressure on Xu Jie is the top priority for the team now. It seems that there are rumors that things have been negotiated, let's wait and see, and look forward to both sides having an exciting performance. After the start of the game, Du Runwang took the lead with a hook shot to score, and Treles immediately responded with a three-pointer. Guangdong team did not start well, with a low shooting percentage, while Beikong's Zhang Fan and Liu…

In the final quarter, Beikong relied on Tres' outburst to level the score difference.

The second phase of the CBA regular season is in full swing, and recently there has been a lot of talk about the Guangdong men's basketball team offering a quote for foreign guard Russell. After the rumored foreign aid of the Guangdong team, DeShawn Nix, returned to the G League Rockets, Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng urgently need to introduce a qualified new ball-handler to relieve Xu Jie's pressure and match the rising local players like Xu Xin. After defeating Qingdao in the last game and winning the positioning battle, the Guangdong team has now returned to the top eight in the standings with a five-game winning streak. However, the main guard of the Guangdong team, Xu Jie, is already at the brink of physical exhaustion, and Zhu Fangyu needs to introduce a guard who can share the ball-handling pressure. In fact, including Huang Rongqi, Zhang Wenyi, Yang Yi, and others are not enough to rotate with Xu Jie. After the potential center Xu Xin gradually emerged, Du Feng needs to pair him with a qualified guard to further help him grow. However, Xu Jie currently needs to be paired with Jilunwate and Morand to stabilize the Guangdong team's record. The second lineup combination of Beizi and Xu Xin is good, but it lacks a qualified offensive initiator. Even if the star player Hu Mingxuan returns, this problem cannot be solved. At this time, Russell's team in the Turkish Super League is basically dismantled due to financial difficulties. This means that the Guangdong team does not need to pay a…

Guangdong Southern Tigers have made a significant move in the transfer market by bringing in a heavyweight new signing - De'Shan Nichols, the point guard from the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves. This news has set off a frenzy among Guangdong fans, who are eagerly anticipating the young guard to showcase his true potential on the CBA court. Nichols is only 23 years old, standing at 1.93 meters tall. As a former five-star high school player in the United States, his talent is undeniable. More importantly, this young man not only excels physically but also technically. He can pass and shoot effectively, with sharp penetration skills. As a point guard, his ability to organize offense is outstanding, and his vision and passing accuracy on the court are impressive. Although he hasn't fully unleashed his abilities in the NBA, this doesn't mean he lacks capability; it might just be that he hasn't found the right stage. It's expected that in the CBA, his characteristics will be fully utilized. It must be said that compared to the previous foreign players cut by Guangdong, Nichols' addition seems quite meaningful from multiple perspectives. After all, Guangdong has seen a flurry of foreign player changes in recent years, but there always seemed to be a lack of fluid organization. The team's offensive rhythm often stumbled due to the absence of a suitable point guard. Nichols' arrival undoubtedly makes the team's offense more structured and rhythmic. At such a young age, possessing such a high level of technical skill, if he can open up in the CBA, he…
